Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, The Adoration of the Magi, 60 x 48 cm, date unknown, New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Rogers Fund, 1937 The spirited handling typical of Tiepolo reaches its height in this type of work. Here it is possible to see the nervous handling of the brush; it creates a sense of visual excitement. It is also create a feeling of taking pleasure in the viscosity of the paint as it is dragged into life by the brush. -- source link
